Confederate Agent
Confederate Agent: A Discovery In History, first published in 1954, is the detailed account of the little-known Confederate rebellion during the Civil War known as the "Northwest Conspiracy". Led by Captain Thomas Hines, C.S.A., the aim of the conspiracy was to "destroy the Union from within, getting Illinois, Indiana and Ohio to join the Confederacy, while New York City was in flames, Chicago was ready for rebellion, and 100,000 Northern Confederates stood ready to strike" (from original edition dust-jacket). Author James Horan's extensive research reveals the extent of the conspiracy, and follows the rebellion through its planning, failed execution, and prosecution of its leaders. Illustrated with photographs and copies of original documents.
